Computron feels no emotion towards the animated television show titled Hyperdimension Warp Record (超次元 ワープ レコード). After all, Computron does not have any emotion circuits installed, and is thus constitutionally incapable of experiencing ‘excitement’, ‘hatred’, or ‘frustration’. It is completely impossible for Computron to experience emotions such as ‘excitement about the seventh episode of HyperWarp‘, ‘hatred of the anime’s short episode length’ or ‘frustration that Friday is so far away’.

Computron checks his internal chronometer, as well as the countdown page on the streaming website. There are twenty-two hours, five minutes, forty-six seconds, and twelve milliseconds until 2 am on Friday (Japanese Standard Time). Logically, he is aware that time is most likely passing at a normal rate. The Simak Robotics Museum is not within close proximity of a black hole, and there is close to no possibility that time is being dilated. His constant checking of the chronometer to compare it with the countdown page serves no scientific purpose whatsoever.

I listened to this one back-to-back with "A Study in Symmetry" (EP619). It was interesting to listen to these two stories of the developing relationship between a human and a non-biological sentient entity.

Of the two, I enjoyed this one more. I found myself unexpectedly sympathizing with the antique robot relegated (retired? put out to pasture?) to performing in a sort of dog-and-pony show at the museum instead of the research work for which it was created, and rattling around entertaining itself after hours. I liked the way there was no big "Surprise, I'm a robot!" reveal to the fanfic community - everyone simply assumes that RobotFan is just another fan who's deeply into his character. The depiction of other members of the fandom was excellent, entertaining, and utterly believable.

I loved the way the android in this story really grew and evolved. Spectacular! And the interactions of the robot on line were fabulous. As cwthree pointed out, it was great how the fandom casually accepted this as the robot just being a fellow geek in character. Awesome fun!
